My sister asked for tickets to something which is happening in December as her (early) Christmas present, so I bought tickets for her and me.
She has just text me saying she no longer wants hers and I should get someone else to go. Apparently this is because of my 'attitude' (because I said she could maybe have told me this earlier) and because she is broke so apparently can't afford to get there (approx £7). This is the girl who works for my parents' company (so is well paid), has no bills except phone and council tax as the rest are paid by my parents (as were these until recently), and has just been on a two week holiday which we reckon cost her upwards of £2,000, her second holiday this year. Oh, and this year she got me neither a wedding nor birthday present.
She will expect another present at Christmas, and I just can't afford it. I'm not working currently so am just as broke, if not more so as DH and I pay our own bills etc ofcourse. I also am fed up with this. I can't bring myself to pander to her.
I know it's not her fault, it's my parents who have spoilt her and brought her up to believe she can have whatever she wants and speak to people however she wants. But it still hurts.
I don't really know why I'm posting, it has just made me sad.
